Recap from Paris
Paris,
Île-de-France,
France
Tuesday, July 22, 2008
We stayed one night in Colognem three nights in Amsterdam and will
hopefully be staying the rest of the time here in Paris. Amsterdam is a
beautiful and very small city. Everyone rides bikes there and it is very
easy to find your way through and there are plenty of small places of
interest. However, there are tons of people who clearly moved there
to smoke weed and most of the tourists are high school/college guys. There
are two obvious extremes on every street.
Paris is great. I was expecting snobby, rude people but everyone speaks
english and most are very kind and willing to answer questions and (in one
case) back Lisa's car up a steep driveway. Today we ate at Duex Magots,
which was very good. Please send me the dish we are supposed to try, I
don't remember what it is called. Also, Nancy: all of my emails have been
deleted, along with the one you sent me about things to see in Paris. I
have already seen the major sights and am now interested in the smaller
ones. Any suggestions I will most likely have time for.
Talk to you soon
Tell the family I said hello.
bye!
